1. If you want Caramel yogurt, go with Stonyfield Farm's Organic Caramel.
It's fucking awesome and I mostly hate yogurt.

The only other yogurt I'll eat is Greek yogurt with honey or Apricot Mango Soy Yogurt (any brand).

5. Thanks
I keep intending to try organic dairy products. I've heard they have fewer hormones and additives.

6. Well, they shouldn't have any hormones and additives.

Once you get used to organic dairy, you won't go back. Conventionally farmed milk tastes like pure chemicals to me now. I think that if you're going to eat anything organic, it should be animal products, because of the hormones and antibiotics.

7. That's what my sister says.
I just honestly forget to buy dairy products when I go to organic food stores...where I buy my Goldenseal, Ginger Tea, etc. Thanks for the reminder...really! :hi:

9. In australia, most yoghurt is a lunch food.
Mind you, it is not sweet, but it does have some fruit in it.

So to answer your question, mango yoghurt.

10. When I was in Australia, I fell in love with all the...
...little foreign cheese snacks! Yummy! I munched on them a lot...that and Brumby’s (very yummy). It's amazing, but I didn't gain any weight while I was there...must have been all the walking!

34. doesn't it hurt

36. Doesn't it hurt
to mispell words constantly, in in the case of 'z' mispronounce it as well?

Actually, why am I bothering with that? I can win in one move:

Doesn't it hurt.... to know how many people it took to vote Crusader Bunnypants back in office?

:)

A low blow perhaps, but I still win. :)

39. speaking of low blows
John Winston Howard.

Didn't you get it? Yog-HURT. or am I mispelling? (sic)

'z' is mispronounced in in in America? Really? How do the English say that?

Reminds me of the story of an Englishman and an American who were working together. When the American heard the Brit say 'schedule' he figured that the Brit was joking with him, so he pronounced it as ske-dooley to joke back. After a while the Englishman asked him 'you don't really say ske-dooley, do you?' to which the American responded 'do you really say shed-jool?'

But NBC just read a letter on their nightly news that accused those accursed East coasters of not being able to pronounce either Nevada or Oregon. And there is controversy within New York state over the pronunciation of Oswego, and the people of South Dakota, unlike most of the rest of the country, pronounce their capital city, Pierre, to rhyme with beer.

40. Don't make me bring the Christian Right into this!
The proper pronounciation of 'z' is 'z' (As in, 'zed'), not 'zeeeeee'

As for NBC, they should know that the ultimate authority of matters of cultooral thingammybobs is us Aussies.

12. Do you remember Dannon Apple Spice Yogurt?
Ooooohhhhh...I miss that one! That used to be my favorite. For some reason, I only see it once in a long while, just here and there.

Love it!

21. I like fruit on the bottom yogurt.
I don't care much for the Whips texture.

I also like vanilla yogurt.

38. Yoplait uses red beetle juice
for food coloring. . . . I think it's here at DU I saw that tidbit! Still green thinking about the last time I had red Yoplait yogurt and I think it's been way over a year . . . .
